The special police investigation team said Thursday it plans to apply for an arrest warrant for Choi Seong-beom, chief of the Yongsan Fire Station, for his suspected role in the botched response to the Itaewon crowd crush.
The police questioned Lee Im-jae, former chief of the Yongsan Police Precinct, and Choi Seong-beom, chief of the Yongsan Fire Station, on Monday about the Itaewon Halloween tragedy.
